: We live near a pond just outside of Montpelier Vermont so wildlife sightings are very regular. We also feed the birds so a bear visiting every few weeks was not a surprise. I had also run into it while walking the dogs through the woods. On a hot summer afternoon in late July, my wife and I checked the feeder from our kitchen window to watch the birds and squirrels and discovered the siblings wrestling. They had been wrestling a few minutes before I started recording. They came back that same day and teamed up to harvest some apples from our apple tree. One would climb the tree to shake the apples out and the other would lay on the ground, eating the newly dropped fruit. Such a pleasure to watch.
